A Bit About
The Author:

In
addition to being a screen writer for feature films and
television series, Robb White is best
known as the author of adventure stories for young readers.
White’s fans include children and baby boomers alike. Many
of White’s adventure novels featured young heroes working as
a team, pulling together to “take on” the powers that be.
Many of White’s fans were introduced to Smuggler’s Sloop
(1937), Three Against the Sea (1940), The Lion’s
Paw (1946), Sail Away (1948) in Scholastic
editions in American public schools from mid-1940-1980s. White
knew that young people appreciated his work most. He
attributed this to their good, decent and courageous nature
– exactly the kind of people about whom he enjoyed writing.
White confided to Something About the Author that he
liked “stories which dealt with ordinary people who survived
in the face of terrible hardship. . . .” White's
work is often driven by a hero, a characteristic that is
clearly present in Deathwatch
(1972)
where the protagonist not only battles his human persecutor,
but barely survives the severe harshness of the American
desert.

Deathwatch has received numerous awards including the ALA
Best of the Best Books for Young Adults, the New York Times
Outstanding Book of the Year (1972) and the
Edgar Allen Poe Award (1973) for Best Juvenile
Mystery from the
Mystery Writers of America, and continues to
receive strong domestic and international recognition as a
great story for young readers today.
